Uncle Si is informed of the demise of internet animal celebrity Peanut the squirrel, who was seized from his home and euthanized by the state government. Si may like to eat squirrels, but he supports the right of Americans to safely keep non-traditional pets in their homes. Martin is trying and sort of succeeding at potty training his two-year-old sons, and Godwin takes the boys back to the “Duck Dynasty” days with his off-the-wall comments. John-David shares a video that he’ll probably regret sharing someday in the future. - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Chapter 1: What happened to Peanut the squirrel?
Is it? Mm-hmm. See, I am reading another article about Peanut, though. CNN did have to stick up for him. The DEC in New York. CNN did stick up for him.
Not peanut authorities. Because look, that guy's not the first animal owner to have his pet confiscated in New York. There's precedence. Because New York also seized a Buffalo area man's alligator. And that guy's now suing the state of New York to get his 750 pound reptile back. Right on. I see. I don't know that you should have 750-pound alligators in Buffalo. Again, I'm not.
Look, hey, it ain't none of the government's business if he's got a 750-pound alligator. That one is a problem. Okay. You know what? I'm with Si. No. Hey, government interference is not allowed. This is the United States of America.
Which is exactly why it is allowed. I thought that's why we got on the boat. It's not allowed. What'd you have to do to get your truck? What'd you have to do to get your driver? What'd you got to do to get your hunting license? You tell me government interference ain't allowed? Why ain't you duck hunting today? It ain't open. Oh, well, heaven forbid the government interfere.
That's because I'm a good citizen. We should be able to have whatever pets. There ain't no dogs down here. The government right here is being rude. I do not disagree. I ain't coming in your old house and took something that was yours.
I do not disagree. But when you're raising apex predators that are not normally found in that ecosystem, i.e. an alligator. An alligator in Buffalo. We just need to make sure everything's okay over here. That's all I'm saying. That'd be like if I were raising a pack of wolves.
I'll back up. I'll back up. Okay. I can see them coming in, knocking on the door and say, sir, I hear you've got animal pets. Let me check on them. Okay. Look, here's what you need to do. You got to take them to the veterinarian, make sure they ain't got rabies, get your shots and all this. Agreed. That's fine. Now, if they'd have done that, I'd have said, hey, okay. And I agree with that.
Just so you know, we're on the same page. They overstep their authority when they come in and kill that animal. I don't disagree with that.
What if that is an alligator, though? I agree with everything you just said. They ain't got no authority to come in my house. That's like coming in my house and killing my pet dog or killing a sweet pea. Government, you kill Sweet Pea, we gonna riot. No. Apex Predator. You're supposed to be the law. Not Sweet Pea.

Chapter 2: Why is Uncle Si sad about Peanut?
But he got a flashlight. And then I remember we went to Toys R Us. That's how old my kids are. Toys R Us was still. And he got to pick out one thing. Well, good. Lightning McQueen. Lightning McQueen. That's what he come home with. Yeah, where do your kids go to a toy store? I just realized your kids don't have a toy store.
The problem is everywhere's a toy store. You walk into gas stations here and they got monster trucks. There is no toy store anymore. Walmart got it. Brookshire's got it. That's true. Target got it. I do remember one time Carter got a reward. Do not go to Tractor Supply if they love excavators, bulldozers. They got a bunch of toys there. At the front door. Yeah, they're smart.
And, buddy, as soon as you walk in, them two little, I mean, I like Tractor Supply. That's why we got them little kid poles right beside the bathroom because if a kid comes in that store, he's going to have to go to the bathroom. I sold a Spider-Man pole this morning. See?
There you go. It's all about where you're at. I mean, Academy's got toys. It doesn't matter. Toys are everywhere. Everywhere they go, they got toys for something. Side of neat toys, he just finds random objects and turns them into toys. To make racket balls. I make my own, boys. Oh, man. Potty training. Potty training. Justice for Whalen. Justice for peanut. Justice for peanut. Poor peanut.
It's sad. That's what Phil Robertson told me when he was sharing the gospel with me. He said, you ever just tried to be good? I kind of thought about it. And looked at it. No, I ain't never tried to be good. That's a novel idea. He said, you can try it, can't you? Novel concept. Just try to be good. I've never tried it. I had to think about it.
I never just tried to be good. Even if you don't believe, what's wrong with looking at your neighbor and saying, you know what, I love you?

Chapter 3: What are the regulations on keeping squirrels as pets?
I tell people that all the time. I would love what would happen if we actually would do it. Just love each other. Just one of the commandments. Just one of them. I'm a bad neighbor. I'm going to say it. You're a terrible neighbor. That's what you said. You admitted that. I just don't like people. Why are you a terrible neighbor? Define that.
I don't know the people's names around. Of the four closest houses to me, I only know the people's names to my left. That's fine. Look, I know them all. Every time I see them, I say, hey. But that's fine. That don't mean you're a terrible neighbor. You know what, though? You love them. If you saw something going down over there, you'd be like, okay. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I'd go help them if something bad happened. Yeah, you got to know somebody's name. But I like, you know, those people are like, hey, welcome to the neighborhood. Here's some cookies. Well, no, no, I understand what he's saying. Oh, yeah, no, I don't do that either. They might be diabetic and can't eat them.
He goes home and keeps to himself. I don't know the people next door to me. They know you, buddy. Yeah, they know you. Well, no, but that roof gives you away. The roof is on fire.
Ever since Jackson started his early campaign for mayor, we're getting to know more of our neighbors because he don't care. He'll walk up to any of them and give them a hug and move on. Carter did that the other day. That is a good thing. Oh, I know. I'm thrilled with it. I am thrilled that he's not one of those that's like, you know.
Carter the other day, the neighbor across the street, they're probably about a year. I hadn't really met him. I'm nice, wave, whatever. Carter sees him and goes, what's up, bro? And I was like, stop, man. We don't know this guy. He might not want to talk to us. Carter's like, I do. Hey, you got to make somebody smile every day. Do you do that? That's what Chris Rice says. I guess.
I would think I do. That's a good one. Okay. People walk out of the honey hole smiling. Yeah. I mean, you probably hand out more smiles than frowns.
Yeah.
I mean, you just want to be a net positive at the end of the day. I'm probably a net positive. You ain't going to win them all. Who said that? Chris who? Rice. He said you got to make everybody smile once a day or you got to make somebody smile. Yeah. Goblin, did you know that if you give two thumbs up, you smile bigger? I didn't know that. That's Carter Owen, 2072 or whatever. I don't know.

Chapter 4: What do the hosts think about government intervention?
That's an easy one.
That's a good one, because I want to ask everybody that. I mean, the whole world. I really do. Oh, I ain't scared of crap on the floor. Oh, there's one. Goblin should get this one. I got it. Oh, that's a close one, but that ain't him. Hold on. What is Martin's biggest fear? Yeah. I want to show that. Oh, I can show this. Oh, that's a tough one. It really is. Oh, that's the right answer.
For all those watching that can see that. I have no idea. I'm not going to change it. I mean, there's only one answer for me. I have no idea. What's the answer? I really don't. And then I'm going to tell you why you're wrong about your own answer. Oh, big cats. I don't like big cats. Oh, that's right. You did say that. I do not like. There you go. Black panthers and cats.
I don't like big cats. I don't like either one of them. I wrote black panthers because specifically that would ruin your whole thing that they're not real. And it would eat you. Yeah, I don't like big cats.
No, no, because after Al's lesson Sunday, that's the question I want to ask everybody. Al had preached about big cats? No, no, no. I'm talking about Al Roberts. He preached on, you know, and his lesson was so good. If you're a Christian, you know, you should have nothing that you're afraid of. Oh, I don't disagree. I don't like, I don't like big cats. Yeah. I don't. Yeah.
You know, I just, yeah. Big cats. Daniel in the lion's den. Big cats in their environment do die. That to me is a legitimate rational fear. Well, no, no. Cause that's one of them. When you go with the pets. Yeah, don't mess with him. Yeah, yeah. Because the guys that actually had it was in Vegas. They were Big Tiger, and their show was about tigers. Yeah. One of them got ate up big time. Ha!
And back in them days, Goblin can, so I can attest to this too, like when you went hunting around here, you talked about seeing a deer for three weeks. Like if you even got to see one. Deer tracks have made you a hero. Yeah, now they live in your backyard, it ain't that big of a deal. But they were such serious hunters, you could not use a flashlight.
So you're walking like early season right now while it's still warm out. I'm walking through the woods as a kid. No flashlight. They won't let me use no light whatsoever. Spider webs. Buddy, face first in them spider webs. And I used to be absolutely petrified of them things. Well, then I grew up and realized I can step on a spider.
Yeah.
